Wales no match for Wallabies
The Wallabies will have to make do with the James Bevan Trophy after missing out bringing ‘Bill’ home with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au installing Robbie Deans men as $1.60 favourites to defeat Wales ($2.35) over the weekend.
“While the Welsh will be a much tougher prospect than the Barbarians, it hasn’t stopped punters confidently backing the Wallabies,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said.
Digby Ioane is $11 to score the first try of the match, while players wearing numbers 11, 14 or 15 are the $2.55 favourite to be the position where the game’s first try will come from.
